This is especially handy for people who want to seem like they’re working at work. And the kicker is, it’s ad-free (mostly).
If you already have Gmail, check out Google Reader. Once you’re set up, you can start adding RSS feeds willy-nilly! Another popular client is Bloglines, so if you are afraid of the Google beast, check that one out.
